Remedial Strategy for Reading - Orton-Gillingham

REMEDIAL STRATEGY FOR READING

ORTON–GILLINGHAM

According to new research, Orton–Gillingham is a structured literacy approach. It introduced the idea of breaking reading and spelling down into smaller skills involving letters and sounds and then building on these skills over time. It also pioneered the multisensory approach to teaching reading, which is a common part of effective literacy programs. This means that instructors use sight, hearing, touch, and movement to help students connect language with letters and words (Rosen, 2014-2021).

This strategy will help students who struggle in reading, spelling and have difficulties in connecting letters and sounds. This is widely used to teach students with dyslexia.

This strategy will help students to:
- understand the rules and patterns in reading to be able to do better in decoding and or sounding out words.

- develop reading comprehension.
- learn using multiple senses. For instance, teaching students the alphabetical letter through looking at the flashcard, saying its name, sounding it out while pointing the letter, and sounding it while writing it with their fingers in salt or sand.
